Questions and Responses

Question: We can’t seem to find a church in our area that has godly leadership and biblical preaching. We feel so alone and now just read the Bible and pray at home. What should we do? And how do we find a “good” church?

Question: My question regards the “home church.” I have a friend who is involved in one....We both believe the same way about doctrines such as salvation, baptism, KJV Bible, being independent fellowships, etc. Is it sinful for me to stay at my church?

Question: How do we find a "good" church?

Question: We can’t seem to find a church in our area that has godly leadership and biblical preaching. We feel so alone and now just read the Bible and pray at home. What should we do? And how do we find a “good” church?

Question: Is it not true that the teaching in the gospels is for Israel...and...the teaching for the church is found in the epistles...?

Question: I disagree with your statements in the December [1997] TBC distinguishing Israel from the church. Paul teaches us in Ephesians 2:11-22 that the church and Israel are “one”...

Question: Deuteronomy 7:3-11 forbids the Jews to marry people from other nations (Gentiles). How could Jesus, then, “the king of the Jews” who came “to fulfill the law,” possibly marry the “church” which is made up of Gentiles?

Question: I started a study on the “bride of Christ” and am very bothered as to why Christians use the term...how could a person...ever get the idea we are Christ's bride?

Question: Please tell me, is there any teaching in the Bible that says men are so different from women...?

Question: In your last newsletter, you stated that “...‘my people’ refers to Israel, not to the church; and ‘I will heal their land’ refers to the promised land of Israel, not to the United States.” If Christians are not God’s people, then who are they?
